I stared solemnly at the picture unfolding in front of me, my husband and my two children playing a quiet game of dominoes in front of the warm, brisk fire. I felt a warmness surround me and looked directly at my daughters smiling face.
"Hey mommy, are you still tired," she asked with s concerned voice, twitching her nose a bit.
I smiled back. "I'm fine sweetheart, I just needed that rest." I walked towards the small and comfy couch and stopped to give both my children a kiss on their forehead and a short peck to my husband.
Syaoken, or Xiao-Ken as his original Chinese name was, and my daughter Nadeshico both looked at their father, he nodded knowingly at them. "Why don't you two go to the kitchen and get something for mommy?" Even though they were only four-and-a-half years old they were smart enough to take a hint.
They both looked at each other and rolled their eyes, Xiao-Ken spoke up. "Yeah we know you guys need to talk," he turned to his twin sister. "Let's go Shico-chan," and they both left the living room.
A half-smile crept on my mouth. "And what are you on about Syaoran?"
"Well my dear Sakura sit right here and let's have a talk," he patted the spot next to him on the floor. I obliged happily and went over to sit by him. He turned to look at me, I just couldn't resist his gorgeous amber eyes.
My own eyes stared into his, "Syaoran, you're worrying me, seriously" I took my hand and ran it through his soft brownish hair. "Is this about all that sleeping, really honey the doctor said it was probably exhaustion"
He kept looking at me. "Doctor Nagisa called today, he said it was urgent and that they wanted to get an immediate blood test"
My eyes widen and I looked down at the floor. Syaoran took both my hands this time and held them. He pressed soft baby kisses to my forehead. "Whatever it is" he whispered huskily "we are dealing with it together"
I called Tomoyo and asked her to baby sit the twins while Syaoran and I went to the doctor's appointment. I had known her almost all my life and I trusted her more than anything, she has practically been my sister.
"Don't worry about a thing" she told me with a cynical look on her face "If anything blows up, we know the number the number for 911.. I think" she ended with a questioning look.
"Xiao-Ken" Syaoran warned him jokingly "If anything explodes or something weird like that happens…" He stopped to rephrase and smiled at him, "Let's just say that Nadeshico will end up as an only child" He kept looking at him with a wide grin on his face which continued until Xiao-Ken laughed at him.
Xiao-Ken and Nadeshico came up and hugged both my legs. " Bye mommy , say hello to grampa for us" I felt a bit self conscious about lying to my own children, but I suppose I wasn't ready to tell my two precious children that their only mother could possibly be horribly ill. " I will kids, now go on, daddy and I have to go" Tomoyo pushed them inside the house and closed the door, a tear slowly ran through my cheek.
The car ride was both short and uneventful . Syaoran kept quiet as his eyes were locked on the road. My own eyes were staring out the window and I couldn't help but thinking about all sorts of things ran through, my family in particular.
Flashes of my son's light brownish hair and his brilliant honey brown eyes mixed with images of my daughter's soft dark brown hair and her looking at me with those timid indigo eyes, just like her grandmother's. she had died when I was only three years old, but the memory of her gaze and her warm smile are still fresh in my mind.
I turned to look at my husband and smiled. Before I got a chance to speak I realized we were already in the hospital parking lot. After we found an empty spot we both got out of the car. He grabbed my hand as we went through the long steel doors.
I swallowed hard and couldn't find my voice to speak as I saw the door to the doctor's office. "Dr. Kentaro Nagisa" I said loud enough for Syaoran to hear "this is it" His only response was to squeeze my hand tighter.
A nice young nurse came up to us "the doctor will be with you soon" Syaoran smiled when he noticed the calendar, I smiled widely at it also.
Flashback
An impatient nineteen year old waited on the living room couch, and another much older man stood in front of him sending deadly messages with his threatening glare. Sparks flew as the tension in the atmosphere became unbearable. It was amazing how long his date was taking to get ready.
He had known this girl for nine years. It was 7 years before, when he had returned to Hong Kong, that he realized how much she meant to him, but he hadn't come back to Japan to tell her so for another three years. They had been seeing each other ever since.
A moment later a beautiful slim and gracious girl came down the stairs. She looked at him brightly and shot a menacing scowl with her eyes to her older sibling. "He hasn't tried to offer you poison tea or anything has he Syaoran?" Touya smirked "Not yet" Sakura grabbed Syaoran's arm and led him out the door. Touya shouted one last time that night. "Just remember I keep the rat poison very close to me!"
It had been a wonderful night and young Syaoran Li was 100% sure that her definitely that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Sakura Kinomoto, he also knew that this was his chance, it was now or never.
They were both cuddled in a small bench in the same park where they had met so many years earlier. The moonlight outlined her delicate features and the passing wind played absent mindedly with her shoulder length hair. He could not stop staring at her, and the words that poured out of his mouth rushed like a flood of emotions.
"SakuraIthinkyou'regorgeous" he said at lightning speed and in an unintelligible way. "Excuse me?" Sakura had obviously had not understood a single word that came out of his mouth. "Could you say that again, please Syaoran?" He blushed madly and stumbled for words, he took a deep breath "I think you're gorgeous" It was her turn to blush.
"Syaoran that's the cutest thing that anyone has ever said to me" She hugged him tighter and his cheeks got redder. He looked directly at her, the flush slowly creeping off his face.
"Sakura" he stopped to catch his breath "You know how special you are to me right, and you know how much I love". "I love you too Syaoran" He chuckled nervously for what he was about to do. "Sakura, I need you to listen to me all right?" Both their faces went serious.
"I know that we're still a bit young, but I also know that you and I are meant for each other" He half grinned "And I know that there are probably a million things in the world you want, and I swear that I would spend the rest of my life trying to give them to you and make you happy" "Well, Sakura, what I'm trying to say is that I want to spend the rest of my life making you happy, I want to spend the rest of my life with you" He stepped down from the bench and kneeled in front of her, sliding a small velvet box out of his pocket.
"Sakura will you marry me?"
End Flashback
Before we knew it the kind nurse came back and beckoned us into the office. I found myself yet again swallowing hard as that familiar feeling of despair took over me once more. Syaoran must of noticed this since he placed his left arm on my waist and we both stepped into the office.
We both sat down in front of Dr. Nagisa's large desk. I had been there countless times before but this time the chairs seemed much more uncomfortable. The doctor just stared at us and I dared to speak up. "Please doctor, spare us the pleasantries and tell us, is there anything wrong?"
He looked strict behind his thick eyeglasses. "Just routine procedure, we just need to confirm something, now don't you go jumping to conclusions" He lowered his brow and turned to me "Now Sakura I will need you to get a full blood test and I have some questions for you" he looked at Syaoran "It would be best if we had some privacy"
That's a "to be continued" for the next part. What is wrong with Sakura?, What's gonna happen to her family? Did Xiao-Ken blow something up?!?..........find out, later
